  • the former ghetto wall (there are two characteristic fragments, from which some of the bricks were removed and exposed in Jewish museums in the USA and Australia)
  • the Walicow Street (with the ruins of the Jewish tenement house)
  • the Chlodna Street (where the Jewish “Bridge of Sighs” was located)
  • the former areas of the “small” and the “big” ghetto connected by the wooden bridge
  • the house of Ludwik Zamenhof (the inventor of the universal language Esperanto)
  • the Route Recalling the Martyrdom and the Struggle of the Jews (designated by blocks of black stone with the names of the participants of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising)
  • the Jewish orphanage with the monument to the children and Janusz Korczak (Henryk Goldszmit), former director
  • the former “Gesiowka” concentration camp (founded on the ruins of the ghetto and Umschlagplatz for mass deportations to Auschwitz and Treblinka)
